What a great show! Preston Smith has a unique style of blues, jazz, and rock that you won't hear anywhere else. We've been fans for many years, and last night Krustiki dug out a scrapbook of photos, flyers, and articles about Preston from umpteen years ago. It turns out that Rebecca (of Purple Orchid) was also a fan and we were probably at the same events many times.

Doctor Z opened up the Castaway Lounge for the pre-party, and there were some fabulous drinks mixed up by our host as well as Kick-the-reverb. I managed to clear the room a few times with my ukulele playing (Hey, where did everybody go?)

We finally got home around 4:00 a.m. (we took a few wrong turns after dropping off Doctor Z) but we're ready to do it all over again.
